Power apparatus having built-in powerline networking adapter

Abstract

A power apparatus having a built-in powerline networking adapter is revealed. This invented power adapter includes one electrical plug and one body. The electrical plug is purposed to connect a called powerline networking, for instance, the home powerline. The body includes at least one electrical outlet and one networking adapter. The at least electrical outlet is purposed to connect this electrical plug for power supply. This networking adapter connects this electrical plug to transport the signal and data packets along the powerline. The above power apparatus having a built-in powerline networking adapter is capable of utilizing one cable to connect the electrical plug and the body in order to undergo electrical conductivity and possess the function of power line lengthening and networking physical extension.
